Thanks for the advice guys - will keep everyone updated

For the record id like to point out that I take great joy in observing the obvious cultural differences in strategies- very fitting

American, German, Canadian.....and of course Matt (just use wizard magic)

You’re getting a lot of good advice for your “hypothetical” question @GraemeE

[northsouthdenimguy]

@GraemeE

The American Way…force it

[GraemeE]

@northsouthdenimguy

Exactly

German - take the time to get all the possible info and engineer an effective and efficient solution

Canadian - politely ask for help from the appropriate professionals (and be sure to adequately thank them after)

@GraemeE … in my case $20.00 CAD a piece for two guys that were the size of small mountains. I would say that I helped (I tried), but those 2 moved the tub like I would a tub of ice cream.

said in Random questions to which you seek an answer:

Lets say, hypothetically you had a hottub that you needed to lift up 1/2" to slide a thin metal plate under (bracket that supports the poles for lifting the cover off said hottub) and even without water its too heavy to lift by hand .
How would you do it?

In this hypothetical situation you do not have access to a large pry bar, car jack or a small crane

And the winner is flat shovel with 2x2 through the handle for extra leverage when lifting

@GraemeE

Congrats!

I’m surprised the shovel could withstand something like that and not bend or break

[GraemeE]

@northsouthdenimguy it was right up to the point of breaking when I kicked the plate under

5 more seconds and it would have snapped

I was wearing no PPE and had no pre task plan ( my safety directors at work would have had a shit fit)

@GraemeE

USA! USA!

I would of used a sky hook… but ok

Has anyone ever sprayed their IH denim with permethrin to help with ticks and chiggers? Can’t imagine it would have any negative effect but I’m hesitant to try it.

[Matt]

Yes. It’s fine.

Does anyone have any faded black IH duck photo examples? I've scoured and can't find much at all. Thanks.

[Aetas]

@Oaktavia here you go.

IH-801
More than five years in use. Definitely more than 150 wear days.

[Oaktavia]

@Aetas awesome, those fades are nice and chill. I have a new pair of the bib version and they have taken up the spot in my rotation over my pair of indigo 805s.

[tody]

@Oaktavia you found a pair of black 806? i have one too, from grailed. cost me and arm and a leg, but it's a great piece.

[Oaktavia]

@tody yeah buddy I have them on me right now! All thanks to @Clint_D Definitely a great piece and I quite like the dark grey triple stitching.

In light of the 666UHR drop, I’m curious if there are any additional cuts to be expected in this final run of UHR, or is the 666 the last of them?

[Giles]

You can find that out by going to the UHR products and clicking on this:

@Go-For-Chill In the newsletter I received today it mentions that this 666 run of UHR will probably be it for UHR.
